    Fortnite has been maintaining a glorious track record from the beginning. Within two weeks of its release, Fortnite acquired 10 million players, thereby being one of the most successful projects for Epic Studios. Getting into the money matters- Fortnite made a revenue worth $9 Billion in 2018 and 2019. The 2020 pandemic further fueled an additional $5.1 billion in revenue. 

                              Minecraft Twitter

    On the other hand, Minecraft in 2020 could make a revenue worth $415 million

    Let’s have a quick look at the features that make Fortnite a better choice than Minecraft!

    1) Fortnite is free of cost!

    Fortnite feels light on the pocket. And that’s why players prefer spending time on this game rather than spending money on Minecraft. Experts believe that the affordability of Fortnite is the biggest reason that it enjoys a greater number of players than Minecraft. 

    2) Fortnite offers frequent updates

    Another factor that makes Fortnite more popular than Minecraft is constant updates. The developers ensure that all the bugs and glitches are taken care of through the array of updates that they offer. More updates keep the players happy and engaged.

    3) It has better-quality graphics

    Fortnite is renowned because of its exemplary graphics. With improved lighting and geometry, better reflections and shadows, as well as a realistic look, Fortnite boasts high-quality graphics. The Epic Studio team has again proved that they have eyes for details.

    4) Fortnite has no lag issues

    Players love the fact that Fortnite has no lag issues. Frequent updates and high-quality graphics make sure that players do not have to face lag issues. This makes the overall gaming experience more engaging. 

    On the other hand, Minecraft faces lag issues and often disappoints users. 

    5) There’s a purpose in Fortnite

    Fortnite is a challenging game. Purpose-driven gameplay makes the game all the more interesting for the players. On the other hand, Minecraft has no purpose, and the element of randomness makes the gameplay futile for the players. Missions and challenges make Fortnite better than Minecraft.
